Skipping steps when you don't feel like climbing..

Fate carries me back to one of my secondary schools - almost 30 years later. The steps are there.. memories of running up when you were not supposed to. I had to go up and down a couple of times and said to hell with , then it was rules , now it was knee pain, painfall psoas muscles and feeling heavy.

It is easy to think to walk up gracefully, but memories though of raising up the legs to run and skip not only one, but two sometimes and then almost tumbling when you reach the top.

The important exercise is not generating the effects it used to as the body decays in places and the pain where pain never existed stops the extremes which used to be reached through overcoming, not pain, but some stiffness.

So days now, when the clouds press down on the heavy body, and there are steps which you don't feel like climbing.. there is a burst sometimes, of moving the legs skipping up them until the top and then when the legs start shaking to say to hell with it and hold on to the handrails.. because even if the legs were not shaking you are likely to be feeling the same way.

Keep the body moving.. keep it moving..
